Who is the Biggest Choke Artist -- Jay Wright or Bill Self?

Wright has more notable losses as far as I'm concerned. Self has some bad ones too but tends to get a little farther in the tournament with his losses in the second weekend. Both won their national titles with some lucky threes.
 
Goes to show you just how hard it is to win it all any more. We have had some great chances the last 8 years under Cal, and only got the big trophy 1 time.

That being said, Wright's teams do seem to choke pretty early. I won if the rumors of him going to the NBA are true?

Take away getting basically every call throughout the tournament last year, including getting the championship handed to them by the refs, and Nova hasn't done shit under Wright.
 
Yeah..Jay Wright choked his way all the way to the Championship last year..where were our NBA first rounders last year when 'Nova was wining it all? Sitting at home waiting for the tournament to end so they could declare for the draft after getting bounced in the 2nd round by a Tom Crean coached IU team..
 
Be careful here guys. In Cals 7 years at U.K., how many times in the tourney have we lost to teams we should have beaten?
 
With the recruiting success and the number of championships we have had since Cal has been here, they could say that Cal is at the top. However, the tournament is all abiut matchups and we have had our share of bad ones.
 
Cal should be no where near this list. He took an 8 seed to the Championship.
 
I thank the guy is a good coach, they got beat by a good Wis. team, anybody can beat anybody in these tourneys games, remember we have a war tomorrow..

One thing that has hurt Nova most years is not having quality bigs. Always good guards. Happ and Hayes hurt them today.

A couple months ago some people on here were saying they wanted to fire Cal and hire Wright. [roll]
We'll bring up some of those threads later including the goober who wanted nasty, lying, cheating Pitino back.

True. Ochefu was solid last year and they won it all but otherwise, it's been their Achilles heel. It's a shame Spellman was ruled ineligible for em this year. He would have played a huge role.

Whoever said that should be banned for life.

4 second round exits in 7 years as a 1/2 seed. Please shut up and run along.

he will get eaten alive in the pros. you can't buy respect with expensive etalian suits.
 
Wright consistently chokes but has one year where the stars line up and people use that to judge him instead of the 15 years of chokes

Self and it’s not even close. With the talent he’s had and only won a single NCAAT title, and fortunate to win that one if Cal and Memphis make a critical FT or two. Self most overrated coach in D1.

That title came because Cal choked like he has repeatedly here with the 6-7 NBA players every year.
